    I have 13 different plants but only 8 were blooming. This heat has really taken its tole on them. A couple were not quite open all the way but you can still see the colors. I don't know the names of them. Just wanted to share, thanks.

    Lovely! I had only ONE dahlia come up this year. Between the massive rain and the moles earlier this year, they just didn't do well here. I'll just have to enjoy your's!

    13 dahlias, oh my! They are lovely, I especially like the red with white tips. So sorry we can't see the rest of them this year.

    You have some lovely colours there. My favourites are the lemon one and the burgandy and white. Thanks for sharing your photographs with us and I hope you'll post many more of your garden. :stew1:

    My Dahia's didn't do too well this year either. I've only had one bloom so far.
    Yours are lovely kkluv, thanks for sharing them.
